How does the article submission work? I have submitted my first article and am curious as to the process involved. How does an article get accepted? Is there a general wait time and when an artice is or isn't accepted is there an email sent?

Just curious.

This is actually something that I have been meaning to address, so thanks for reminding me. For all members; articles that are submitted are sent to me to, as TopDogs said, review, edit, and finally publish. I've noticed a number of members submitting the same article several times; there's no need to do that, and when you submit an article just because it isn't published right away doesn't mean your work is lost (I've had that happen several times to me, it sucks).

If an article is rejected or doesn't become published for whatever reason, I don't normally PM the person mainly because of time constraints; if you do have a question about your article or why it was or wasn't published, feel free to PM me any time about it. Often times I may have just forgotten to check the "Inbox" as it is in a different section than PMs and such.

ok, thank you. The reason I ask is all websites do their article reviews differently. Plus my article is just epic awesomeness, yuck yuck.

When posting news articles, sometimes it takes soo long to get posted it's not news by that time. :baffled:

I'm thinking it's because it's geared at zelda, which isn't an xbox title. Still a good article, I might just post it in a different way in the forum.
